Telecom Council Executive Forum Breakfast: The Future of Voice

July 18, 2013 | 8:30 AM - 10:30 AM
Nokia Growth Partners, 200 S. Mathilda Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA


Join us for breakfast as we discuss so what will become of voice. Is there value to offer, and revenue to be earned in carrying calls? As voice goes packet-based, will we see HD versions, will we see quality increase or decrease? Will it continue to be provided by carriers, or will OTT service providers start owning the customer's experience?

Free to members. Qualified non-member guests may also register for $200. If you meet the requirements of our Executive Forum and would like to be invited to these meetings, please send your credentials to
council@telecomcouncil.com.

Telecom Council Entrepreneur Forum Lunch: Mobile Security

July 18, 2013 | 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM
Nokia Growth Partners, 200 S. Mathilda Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA


We've heard the security firms tell us for years that mobile is a massive security threat, but seen little in the way of attacks. But the increased use of mobile devices, the increased data stored therein, and the increasing use of BYOD into corporate environments means this threat could now have serious consequences. Join us for our lunch discussion as we discuss the real threats, some real cases, and the real opportunities in protecting people and enterprise from malicious attack.

This meeting is free to members or $50 for non-members.

LES Silicon Valley presents: Innovation and Intellectual Property – Friend or Foe?

July 31, 2013 | 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM
VISA, 900 Metro Blvd., Foster City, CA


Innovation is the driving force behind growth in the global economy, but how does intellectual property promote or inhibit innovation?

The US Department of Commerce recently released a study reporting that IP-intensive industries support at least 40 million jobs and contribute more than $5 trillion to our gross domestic product (GDP); however, the executive office of the president released a report stating “All told, the victims of patent trolls paid $29 billion in 2011.”

Within organizations of all sizes, filing patents can spur innovation by both positively reinforcing inventors and by bringing the topic of solving problems to the forefront of the discussion. However, it also can have a negative impact by diverting internal capital, inventors’ time, and limiting the talk of innovation to only those things that are patentable. Join Visa and other IP industry thought leaders as they discuss the effects, both internally and externally, on innovation, intellectual property rights and overall economic growth.
